Benefit to Fedora

This feature provides a preview of high availability for cloud environments using a building block that is reusable in other cloud management systems. This feature provides only single node deployable high availability, but for F17 we plan to integrate with other distributed cloud management tools such as Aeolus.

Scope

This is a standalone package but has several dependencies on other parts of Fedora 16. We are in good shape relatng to dependencies, however, systemd is not LSB compliant currently resulting in our software not being able to provide high availability for F15 or Rawhide guests.

We are nearing code completion for the single node case and have some basic packaging done.

Dependency with broken functionality:
systemd - systemd guests don't work properly because systemd is not LSB compliant. F14 and RHEL6 guests will work properly, but without bug fixing in systemd, F15 and F16 are nonfunctional.

Contingency Plan

If this feature is not ready by deadline, it can moved to a later Fedora version.
